China’s $170bn gold rush triggers Taiwan invasion fearsBeijing on record 17-month buying spree in what experts say is a move to guard against sanctions China has built up a $170bn (£135bn) stockpile of gold after a record buying spree, in a move that has raised fears Beijing is preparing its economy for a possible conflict over Taiwan. The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) bought 27 tonnes of gold in the first three months of the year, taking its reserves to a record high of 2,262 tonnes, according to data from the World Gold Council. China has now been buying gold steadily since October 2022, marking its longest build up of the precious metal since at least 2000. The 17-month streak has increased its gold reserves by 16pc. telegraph.co.uk

This is absolutely priceless. And probably the most frightening clip you'll ever watch on the people in charge of the US economy.

>> the fcking fcks China’s gold-buying spree could be the straw that breaks the dollar’s back Beijing could hold the key to the imminent demise of the US currency’s special status This is not necessarily anything sinister. It could simply be that the PBOC is a shrewd investor, capitalising on gold’s traditional appeal as a safe haven, a hedge against inflation and a means to diversify risk. The Chinese authorities may just have been playing a rising market extremely well. It is worth noting too that private Chinese citizens have also been enthusiastic buyers of gold as a way to get around the country’s strict capital controls, and at a time when domestic equity and property markets have been performing poorly. Nor is China alone. According to the latest official data, Turkey actually bought more gold in the first three months of this year (about 30 metric tonnes) than China (27 tonnes), with India (18.5 tonnes) not that far behind. telegraph.co.uk
